Jack Burke Jr.

HIT THE ROAD JACK

Fucking hell 1923 really is a shriveled raisin now. Another recent departee from its ranks is one Jack Burke Jr. Burke was a successful golfer of the 1950s and early 60s who won both the Masters and PGA Championship in 1956. His Masters win, where he rebounded from an eight-shot deficit to beat Ken Venturi, remains the greatest comeback in the tournamentโ€™s history. He was 100 and picked by six teams, including joker points for In The Hole!
